Hi.
There is SUIT, which is a user interface toolkit written in C and very
portable.

SUIT home is uvacs.cs.virginia.edu -- try
'finger suit AT uvacs DOT cs DOT virginia DOT edu' for details.

SUIT stuff for DJGPP is at asterix.inescn.pt in dir
pub/PC/devel, files SUITG*.ARJ

Contents of pub/PC/devel:
=========================

suitg110.arj	- SUIT for DJGPP version 1.10
suitg111.arj	- SUIT for DJGPP version 1.11
  SUIT is a toolkit for creation/customization of graphical user
  interfaces; it supports many widgets and is extensible. Easy to use.

im-grx.arj	- SUIT widget for display of gray images
		  (included in both suitg*.arj above)

liblugpc.zip	- LUG library for DJGPP
  LUG is a library for reading/writing/manipulating images; it comes
  also with many sample tools. Very easy to use!

sipp31.arj	- SIPP 3.1 for almost anything (including DJGPP)
  a library for creating images from scene descriptions with spheres,
  boxes, polygons, etc; nice.
  This archive contains the lib for DJGPP (libsipp.a)

srgpsph2.arj	- SRGP/SPHIGS for DJGPP
srgpsph3.arj	- SRGP/SPHIGS for Windows 3.1
  SRGP is a 2D graphics package, powerful and easy to use; SPHIGS is
  similar to PHIGS+ and supports 3D primitives, hierarchical objects,
  shading, etc. Invented by the writers of the Bible of Computer
  Graphics, Principles and Practice (Foley, Van Dam et al) - the book
  is recommended to anybody interested in graphics (all the algorithms
  use SRGP and SPHIGS).

vogl.arj	- VOGL for DJGPP
  VOGL is an emulation of SGI GL, which runs on UNIX/X11, Windows, Mac
  and DOS (with and without DJGPP). It is a library supporting 2D and 3D
  primitives.




SUIT example:
=============
#include "suit.h"

SUIT_object num1, num2, result;

void PerformAddition(SUIT_object button) 
{ 
    double temp1, temp2; 
    char buffer[100];
    
    temp1 = atof(SUIT_getText(num1,"current value"));
    temp2 = atof(SUIT_getText(num2,"current value"));
    sprintf(buffer, "%f", temp1 + temp2); 
    SUIT_setText(result, "label", buffer); 
}

void main (int argc, char *argv[]) 
{ 
    SUIT_init(argv[0]);

    num1 = SUIT_createTypeInBox("num 1",NULL); 
    num2 = SUIT_createTypeInBox("num 2",NULL); 
    result = SUIT_createLabel("result"); 
    SUIT_createButton("GO", PerformAddition);
    SUIT_createDoneButton(NULL); 

    SUIT_beginStandardApplication(); 
} 
=====



Hope it helps,
Antonio Costa.
